Felix Meschberger updated SLING-278:
------------------------------------
Description:
As discussed on the dev-list [1], resource type inheritance for script/servlet
resolution should be implemented as follows:
* define an optional property sling:resourceSuperType which may take a
resource type used as
the super type of a resource type. This property is stored at the node
where the scripts
are located for the resource type or at the node itself. (see below)
* the resourceSuperType of a property resource is the resourceSuperType of
the parent node
plus the property name.
* define a sling:ResourceSuperType mixin node type, which defines the
sling:resourceType
property for it to be attachable to any node.
* Add Resource.getResourceSuperType() returning the super type of the
resource type or
null if no such super type exists.
* Add support to the Servlet Resolver to resolve scripts not just for the
resource type but also
for the super type (if defined). This super type resolution takes place
before falling back
default scripts !
Sample:
/
+--- types
+--- type1
+--- type2
+--- sling:resourceSuperType = type1
+--- type3
+--- content
+--- en
+--- sling:resourceType = type2
+--- en
+--- sling:resourceType = type2
+--- sling:resourceSuperType = type3
The resource super types are defined as follows:
/types/type1 --> no super type
/types/type2 --> type1, due to sling:resoureSuperType property
/content/en --> type1, due to sling:resourceSuperType property in
types/type2
/conent/de --> type3, due to sling:resourceSuperType property

non-mixin base type
of the primary node type of the resource node may be selected.

* Remove fall back to JCR node type hierarchy. This is confusing as it mixes
two concepts switching back and forth.
* Add example use of sling:resourceSuperType settings
